So what is a job that is interesting and fulfilling, and makes YOU happy?

Are you 100% sure that you will be doing this job

in the future?

Maybe Not: Possible Reason No. 1

The job you want now may not exist in the future or new jobs in new industries may be created

2015 20252005

Maybe Not: Possible Reason No. 2

Simply too competitive and you don´t get it (e.g. McKinsey & Company typically receives 12,000 applications for 350 places for its European internship scheme)

Maybe Not: Possible Reason No. 3

During the MBA or Master program, you are immersed in a totally different environment and you change your mind.

your unknown future?

way.
